At this point, my favorite bands are Kansas, Frank Zappa, Aphrodite's Child, Focus, and especially VDGG!

Nil novo sub sole. When I was 16 and prog was not yet out of its classic period, I had similar experiences.

There was a special area at the nightclub where I saw Magma for minors. It was full. Not just with teens who got stuck there with their loser parents. These kids payed extra for the meet and greet and brought their vinyl copies of Magma classics for Christian Vander to sign.

Like I've always said; No matter how much your friends like Thick as a Brick and Close to the Edge, they still don't like prog.

I'm 15, soon to be 16. I grew up with prog. Don't listen to it a ton the past couple years but it's still a significant part of my musical library and tastes.

I got the exact same feeling! Just nobody likes it eh...
I always wonder why I'm the only one, why my taste is so different.

I'm 15 too by the way.
